Man says divine intervention led him to lost toddler Christopher Ramirez in the Texas woods.
When Tim Halfin learned during Bible study about a toddler missing in the thick woods of southeast Texas, he said God told him to go search for the child.
In an interview on ABC's "Good Morning America" Monday, Halfin said he can only credit "divine" intervention for leading him on Saturday to find 3-year-old Christopher Ramirez, who survived nearly three whole days alone in the woods of Grimes County, about 50 miles northwest of Houston.
After hearing of the child's disappearance, Halfin said he went to the woods around 11:45 a.m. Saturday near his home in Plantersville. About 10 yards in he heard what sounded like a child's whimper.
"I said, 'Christopher is that you?'" Halfin said. "Then he speaks again and I'm like, 'Whoa, praise God.'"
